Description:
Schema collation not saved.

How to repeat:
1. On Home page execute 'Create new EER Model' command.
2. On 'MySQL Model' tab execute 'Add diagram' command
3. On 'EER Diagram' tab right click on 'mydb' in the 'Catalog Tree', execute 'Edit Schema...' command from context menu. 'mydb' properties tab is shown with Collation value = 'lati1 - latin1_swedish_ci'.
4. Change collation value to 'Server default', close 'mydb' tab.
5. On 'EER Diagram' tab right click on 'mydb' in the 'Catalog Tree', execute 'Edit Schema...' command from context menu. 'mydb' properties tab is shown with Collation value = 'Server default'
6. Change collation value to any other value from the list (i.e. 'utf8 - utf8_general_ci'), close 'mydb' tab.
7. On 'EER Diagram' tab right click on 'mydb' in the 'Catalog Tree', execute 'Edit Schema...' command from context menu. 'mydb' properties tab is shown with Collation value = 'Server default'.

Please note that schema collation of a reverse engineered database is set to 'Server default'.
